Long document with table keeps corrupting

I have a file that is around 300 pages containg a continous table - text only, roughly 13,000 rows that keeps corrupting.
The first file corrupted, so we rebuilt it and when the second one was just about complete, InDesign crashed and now the file will not open... it opens a blank screen but gets a never ending spinny beach ball.
The file also contains nested master pages (total of 2 masters) moved from a book that this file will eventually become a part of.
My question, is the table simply too large for Indesign to handle - (this I find unlikely since I've done similar work many times before) or are the master pages causing an issue or should this file be part of the book before starting it rather than adding it after its finished?
Any thoughts would be appreciated, before we rebuild for the 3rd time. I just want to be cautious to not do anything that might corrupt the book...
Thanks

Are you patched all the way to 7.0.4?
13000 rows of pasted text. Wow.
Not that it helps at this point, but I'd start doing save as more often, and to a new name so you have some backup versions if it goes south again. An export to .idml (see Remove minor corruption by exporting) if you can get anythign to open certainly won't hurt, either.

  • Styles (nested?) in Long Document with Color Coded Sections

    Hi, I am looking for a solid style set-up for a document with seven color coded sections. The character, paragraph, table styles, etc. will be used throughout the book, but several of them (chapter headers, bold color, table strokes) will shift colors from section to section. What is the best way to set this up so I can still make other changes to the styles without having to edit each colored section separately.
    Thanks in advance,
    Marshall

    In practice, I'm having rouble making this work.
    I have one swatched, named "Section Color" and if I change the definition or CMYK recipie of that color it will ripple instantly through the styles( as you said,) I have swatches unchecked from the Syncronize Options, but upon syncing it still rewrites that CMYK recipie back to the style source's and all colors ripple back.
    It's not hard to reset one color for each section, but id like to know why it's changing swatches with swatches unchecked. Is it writing that color from the paragraph or other styles which ARE set to sync?

  • Printing document with table to PDF - file disappears

    When I print a document to PDF from either AppleWorks or MS Word, it is saved to the location as PDF and works as would be expected. If the file contains a table, the PDF file initially appears where saved but disappears when I attempt to access it.
    The document was initially created in AppleWorks. The MS Word document was translated from AppleWorks.
    The PDF file quite literally disappears from the screen. All routine Mac software maintenance is on schedule and all Apple updates for my OS completed to date.

    The solution is logical, if annoying.
    My Print to PDF problem has been solved. I complained about not being able to save documents containing tables created on AppleWorks as PDF, but the tables were not the problem. The problem was a font within a table. I discovered this when I could also not print the document to a printer. Despite saving as PDF being a print routine, I cannot get out of Save As mode. The document did print to PDF on my mother’s iBook because another font was substituted in the table.
    There are several fonts on my PowerBook that will not print, even on a postscript printer that has them on board. That is a separate and largely ignored problem. One of those is the Bookman family. Too bad. I like that family and use it frequently with older operating systems, but OS X refuses to print anything containing that font. I have never taken the time to troubleshoot the problem.
    I had already performed the searches suggested to no avail. The point of all this is that font problems that prevent printing a document to a printer will also prevent a document from printing to PDF. The icon initially appearing then going away seems odd to me but probably not to a MacGeek.
    Thank you, Mask, for giving thought to this issue. Now, maybe I should invest in a font troubleshooting application.

  • Open a word or RTF document with table doen't shown right

    I found some problem opening rtf or word documents with pages if they have a table
    Rtf doesn't import table
    Word has problem with merged cells

    I don't understand the point of your post.
    If you're trying to report a problem or "bug" with Pages, that is not the purpose of this user-to-user forum. You should leave feedback for the Pages team on this page.
    I've not had a problem opening Word files with tables in Pages. If you're saying Word can't handle tables with merged cells, then don't use merged cells in files you are going to export as Word. Word & Pages must handle merged table cells differently, as I know both can do that. As far as RTF, Pages can open & export as RTF. Again, if you are going to export as RTF, don't use tables. Neither of these is a fault of Pages, just limitations of the formats/programs.

  • Create a word document with TOC, table,etc

    Hi,
    How to create a word document with Table of content(TOC),header, footer, table, etc?
    Help me with any APIs or examples. I have already tried with POI API, but couldnt create TOC.. So any other api or any solution is available to create complex word document.
    Thank you

    Hi BIJ001,
    Thanks for your valuable suggestion.
    Open standards WordprocessingML format is supports by Microsoft word. It is typical xml format of designing word document. But creating document with TOC,tables, different styles of paragraphs are complex. Using this format, i have created simple docs. I never tried with complex formats like TOC. The generating File should be in ".doc or .docx" format only.
    Hi gimbal2,
    I am parallely looking to find solution in OpenOffice format also. But i never try out ".docx" file format. I will try to look out this option.
    Thanks for the input.

  • Converting Word (97-2003) docs with tables

    I have tried converting a few Word docs with tables using Acrobat.com. There is one small image in the upper right corner that in the converted doc stays in the same place so I know that is not the issue. What happens is that the converted document takes a nicely formatted document with tables and nested tables and turns it into a 4 page document and places all of the information in a larger table in the first column and looks nothing like the original with the exception of the header.
    I figured out that if I save the file to ODT that only the font gets changed (but this can be fix on my end by using a supported font). However, the person responsible for converting documents in the future after me neither has Acrobat pro or a way to save files in ODT format (they refuse to upgrade to Word 2007 for some reason so no ODT or Convert the PDF/XPS plug-in for them) so Acrobat.com is a sollution I was looking into to keep productivity going.
    If needed, I can send the original documents for anyone who would like to troubleshoot them and give feedback on what I could try so that they will work on Acrobat.com in ODT format.

    Thank you for your post. Would you please send along some sample files to us? Please reference this forum post, and I'll pass the files along to our QA folks for testing. Hopefully we'll be able to resolve the issue shortly! One more thought - you might try either creating your original document in Buzzword, then converting to PDF OR importing the word file to Buzzword, making any edits, and then converting to PDF. Could help. Let us know!

  • HELP!? Remove 1 page from long document and shift all the rest pages

    Hello,
    I am facing to following problem:
    I have a long document with facing pages. Now I need to remove one left page in the middle of the document and shift all the rest pages one step forward. It means from all right pages do a left and vice versa (started from the page that was removed). There is a continous text int the whole document and left/right strip made from different photos.
    To clarify the situation I am attaching the preview. I have deleted page no.12 and I need to shift page 13 to left, 14 to right after 13, 15 to left, 16 to right after 15 and so on....
    Is there any simple way how to do it?
    Thank you very much for any tips.

    It looks to me as if you may something else going on here. Are you using right-to-left text here so the document binding would be onthe right when the book is closed? If not, your problem is not with page 13 so much as it is with the earlier pages.
    Unless you force it to do otherwise by disabling page shuffling someplace, in left-to-right documents using facing pages ID will always put odd numbered pages to the right of the spine and even to the left, the opposite for right-to-left documents. In either case, it seems like you have page shuffling disabled either for the whole file or for a selected spread. You can re-enable it from the menu in the Pages panel. When ID asks if you want to maintain the current number of pages on a spread you should probably say no. Either pages 1-12 will swtch sides, or 13 and following will, and your spreads will rearrange to put two pages together as they should be.
    If you  have overridden master page objects, a side effect of switching sides on the spread will be that the overridden objects will remain and the new master objects from the other side of the spread will appear behind them.

  • I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I cant get a reset all of my credentials dont work.

    I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I can’t get a reset all of my credentials don’t work. Now all my apps won’t work. it looks like they load for half a second then disappear. What can I do?

    - Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    - For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
    - Instead, try restoring from backup.

  • After updating to 5.1, pages no longer lets me convert long, single page (up to 8 1/2 x 50) document to an 8 1/2 x 11 document with many pages.

    I have been using pages to create a document that I always export in two ways.  1st, I export a single page document that contains all of the data (sometimes this can go as long as 8 1/2 x 50).  I have to do this for web purposes.  Next, I duplicate the document, and change the page setup to 8 1/2 x 11, turning it into a document with many pages. This is for printing purposes.
    Before upgrading to Pages 5.1, this worked flawlessly.  After the upgrade, when I change the document to 8 1/2 x 11, Pages just deletes all of the data after the 11'' mark. 
    I am trying to make it behave like it did before the upgrade: when I convert the document to 8 1/2 x 11, it just made as many new pages as necessary and didn't delete any of the data.
    How can I do this?

    Pages 5 is buggy and has had over 100 fetaures removed.
    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder, use that.

  • Cannot search file content on Word document with embedded Excel table

    Cannot search file content on Word document with embedded Excel table. I have Windows 8.1 64-bit and Office 2010 Professional. Only phrases from within Excel tables are not searchable. I have many Word documents with embedded Excel table.
    I use it for my invoices. Those invoices are converted to pdf to be sent via mail. Searching the same phrases in related pdf files Works fine. And yes, folders are indexed, searching service is active......... For example I can find all invoices that have
    specific address or name, which is located in word document, but cannot find invoices with specific item name or price, being that information is in embedded Excel table. (not linked, embedded). I thought that is a question for Windows forum, but guys directed
    me here on Office forum. To clarify, I do not use Ctrl+F inside some document, but Windows Search in my folders. Probably the same happens in Office 2013.
    Thank you.

    Hi, I have a lot of Word documents (invoices, offers). Main part of those documents is embedded Excel file because it is easier to do mathematics in Excel than in Word. There are columns with description, unit price, quantity, taxes... Now, I need
    to find who bought HP switch 2530-24G last year. I open folder with last year invoices and search "2530". Cannot find any. But if that document was converted to pdf for mail, than I can find that phrase. Windows search does not work for content if the content
    is in embedded file.

  • Acrobat Pro XI Will Not Print Word Document with a Rotated Table

    I have a MS Word document that is mostly text, but include a table that has been rotated in a text box to fit on the page.  When I try to print to PDF using Acrobat Pro XI, the document crashes at the page the table is on.
    I have tried several attempts to print using the Acrobat Printer, convert to PDF feature and trying to print just the page alone.  Acrobat will simply not print word document with a rotated table.
    Any idea how to fix this?
    Word 2013, Windows 7, Acrobat Pro XI 11.0.06

    In the full document, the print to PDF goes only as far as the table, then ends - not printing the table.  The remaining pages are not printed.
    For example, I have trimmed the file down to just the table page, and included links to it, and a copy of the PDF it generated.

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/60543835/Forums/Table%20Sample_140903.pdf
    The error message I now get when I try to print is: "There is not enough memory or disk space to repaginate or print this document."
    However, with the Task manager open, the memory never seems to get above half of the available (the graph bar fluctuates a little, but stays stable")
    The page prints to a regular HP or Xerox printer with no problems.

  • Java corba ID CS5 7.0 Problem with table format import excel 2007 document

    hello,
    I want to import an excel 2007 document with a table into a textframe. This is the code to set import preferences:
         ExcelImportPreference pref = aplicacion.getExcelImportPreferences();
         pref.setTableFormatting(kTableFormattingOptionsExcelFormattedTable.value);
    but when I insert the file into de texframe and export in a pdf file i lose the table format, always apply this format: kTableFormattingOptionsExcelUnformattedTabbedText.value.
    This problem only happens with excel 2007. Excel 2003 files the import is ok.

    Apart from iTunes (which I rarely update since we never use it) they both had a Java update, which I'm installing now but I can't imagine that's connected (plus they both didn't have it). Both Macs are 10.6.8.
    I also repaired the permissions and cleaned caches on Friday. Today I created a new user/profile and tried the same thing on that. No luck.
